6/14/2019 – DOG, UTMH, RBC, Narcan at HAL, tennis, drinks at Ted and Anne’s house

Friday

Spent most of the day hanging end of newest DOG show. UTMH telecon with Troy Web, Matt Almeida, David Ackerman. Migrated website from diary.markorton.com to markorton.com. 

Emily Chameides sent me a text message at 4pm:

Just had to call 911. Found someone passed out in men’s room. Greenport Rescue and HPD responded and they revived him. Glad we caught it in time.

I was in the car going to play tennis. Saw the ambulance already at the library. I responded later. She replied:

Yes. Glad they came quickly and revived him. We have narcan but I called 911 first and they came so quickly. Glad I didn’t need to administer.

I stopped by her house on 5th on my way home from tennis. She was sitting on her stoop. We chatted about the incident for a few moments, the emotional burden of finding unresponsive bodies and then deciding what to do. She and Paul have Narcan training. But she pointed out that this guy was really big and it happens that they get aggressive when revived. But the Greenport Rescue came so quickly that she didn’t need to work that over too much.

Tennis was a first outing after the trip and illness, first time in just a day shy of four weeks. Trouble striking the ball squarely. Volleying OK. Ted was like the Energizer Bunny. I was fairly dead. Only played for an 45 minutes. 

Drinks with Ted and Anne. Ted had made a big plate of deviled eggs. Shared notes of our trips. They had taken ten students from Marist to Paris for ten days. As usual the conversation was loud, abrupt, back and forth.

Ended evening with another The Closer. 

4/26/2019 – colonoscopy

Got up at 6 am to take the second round of last night’s laxatives. Third day of this process.

Appointment at 10:30am at CMH. 

Anesthetist said that she was starting the propofol drip. I woke up sometime later back in the ambulatory room. Never actually met the doctor, Dr. Blachman. He walked in when I was already lying on my side falling asleep. Everything went well. Everything normal.

Lunch at The Cascades at 1:15 pm with Karen. Miranda Barry and Charlotte Sheedy were there. Charlotte still doesn’t recognize me. 

Had a new sandwich, The Catamount.

Catamount (Vegetarian) $8.25
Hummus, cucumber, roasted red peppers, grated carrots, sprouts, and mozzarella cheese with a touch of balsamic vinaigrette served on mixed grain bread

Think this will be my go-to sandwich in place of tuna on multi-grain.

Talked with Matt Almeida. Things are slow on his end.
